Easy Vegan Cashew Queso

raw cashews (soaked

water

yeast

salsa

lemon juice

salt

turmeric

smoked paprika

If you don&#8217;t have a Vitamix or high-speed blender, soak your cashews for 20-30 mins. and they will soften. It will make them creamier as they are blended.

Put all ingredients, EXCEPT SALSA, into a blender and process until smooth and creamy.

If you want, you can warm this in a small saucepan on low to low-medium heat. Stir regularly so it doesn&#8217;t burn. It will thicken even more as it heats up.

This is delicious! Thank you so much. We poured it over some potatoes and veggies for a quick dinner.

I'm totally going to make this for Christmas Eve tomorrow!

Thanks, Donna! I hope you enjoy it. And, thanks so much for your kind words. Peace.

Made this as a topper tonight! YUM! The best vegan cheese sauce I have made thus far. I've tried different recipes and none worked. The taste for your's was perfect! Kid approved. Adding to my rotation of recipes. Thanks for sharing!

I know I keep leaving comments on how delicious every recipe of yours is that I make, and here I am doing it again!! This Queso Dip is a creamy bowl of deliciousness!! It is super simple to make and over the top yummy!! Try it, you will not be sorry!

I have made this several times and my husband and I both love it! So versatile and frankly I think it’s way better then regular greasy cheese! I wanted to also thank-you for your many tasty, easy recipes. When I have friends wanting to try plant based eating I will always recommend your recipes, they are awesome! 😋👍🏻

I have made SO many vegan cheese sauce recipes over the 4 years I've been plant based and I loved the simplicity of this one and the flavor. I think the smoked paprika gives it the perfect punch. I also added some fresh onion and garlic before I mixed it. We have made it twice now because it can come together so fast. Will definitely continue to make this one!

I haven’t made it het. Just wonder ignorance i can blend t in a high speed blender until cooked. Really want to avoid the additional on additional and meds mess of cooking as a saucepan.

Very good! I added a fourth of a canned roasted red pepper and it gave it a really "cheesy" look. YUM!

Shane, you make me (almost) want to recycle all my vegan cookbooks and just cook from Shane and Simple...your recipes are top-of-the-charts!!

Finally made a WFPB queso that my teens approved! They say it tastes like cheese! Thanks so much Shane, your recipes are very dependably tasty!

Shane, this is wonderful! I made the tortilla chips also. When I clicked on your link to the Homemade Tortillas, it came to the chips baked in the oven. I'm asking if you make your own flour tortillas and where can I find that recipe? Thank you.
